WHIL

[Dan.Strassberg]

Well, originally, 1430 was owned by Sherwood Tarlow, I believe. Wasn't 
he a judge? I have no idea how many years he owned WHIL, but I'm 
pretty sure that it was more than a few. Then the station started 
changing hands among major (and later-to-become major) group owners, 
including Evergreen and Pyramid, one of which was--IIRC--the last of 
the owners to remain standing before it was absorbed into Clear 
Channel.
